Samhain is an ancient Celtic Holy Day marking the end of harvest and the beginning of the dark half of the Wheel of the Year.
It is the time when the veils are thinnest to the spirit world and we easily connect with the creative formless nature of inspiration.
The West celebrates Halloween during this time for a reason.
Samhain reminds us to be present to and resource from the inevitable times of the unknown.
It reminds us that going into the dark is ordinary, predictable and necessary for the next experience of Light.
It reminds us that the dark is the Feminine, the watery womb, the area where we hold our creative power.
Samhain is when we question how culture and religion teaches us to be fearful of the Mystery - of our body, energy, transitions - that we familiarize how capable we are of navigating it. Not from logic, but from our felt-sense.
It is by greeting the Mystery through ceremony, inviting our consciousness to elevate into a broader perspective that we collectively learn how to see beyond the form. And feel into what seeds of creation are pulling us into who we become in the process.
This retreat is designed to hold you in that in-between space, to find your footing there, & bring all parts of your unknown to the fire with like-hearted sisters.
This is the medicine that we deeply crave & the things of the outer world cannot satisfy, a remembering of being ALIVE. Being HERE and honoring the call for more, of YOU.
Designed for the modern mystic, this seven-month journey invites you to explore your inner world through the lens of the chakras and other energetic systems. Together, we’ll channel your attention toward a heartfelt goal - whether it’s a creative project, a relationship, or a health transformation.
This is deep inner and outer work. With Divine Feminine practices, inspired accountability, and soulful guidance, you won’t just move the needle, you’ll become the version of yourself ready to birth your dream into reality.

“Maura’s Modern Mystic retreat offered profound healing for me. I had been working with Maura one-on-one for just over four months before the retreat. My intention was to move into my shadow, to become aware of the deep inner workings of what was standing in the way of my success. Through working with archetypes, ancient healing traditions, ceremonies, and somatic practices, I felt like a wrung-out sponge. And that was when the door burst open to the other side. Our bodies are wise, and they will try to keep us safe. It was in the space held by the loving women around me and by Maura that the safety was created for me to open up to the truth and the power that resides in me, and truthfully, in each and every one of us. This is not for the faint of heart. This is not for someone who simply wants to go somewhere to feel good. This is deep, profound work, and at the end, you will feel free, lighter, and more empowered to be who you truly are.”
